Good architecture considers what surrounds it; and so do we.

Our team stepped out of the office to clean up the neighborhood we call home base. No renderings, no deadlines — just colleagues, gloves, and a few blocks worth of trash bags. The built environment only goes as far as the community it sits in, and we think that's worth showing up for.

Happy Earth Day from our crew to yours. 🌱

In honor of National Donate Life Month, we’re taking a closer look at a project that sits at the intersection of high-tech engineering and human hope: the UW Health Transplant Perfusion Lab.

These three new labs are designed specifically for organ perfusion; a process that keeps donated organs viable outside the body by mimicking natural circulation. This isn't just about square footage; it’s about creating a precision-controlled environment where technology can:

-Extend the "golden hour" for organ viability.
-Improve post-transplant success rates.
-Ensure more donated gifts find their way to waiting patients.

We are proud to partner with institutions like UW Health to build the infrastructure of tomorrow’s medicine.

What a night with IIDA Wisconsin. ✨

The 2026 Celebrate in Design Awards ceremony was a showcase of the outstanding creativity, innovation, and leadership within our design community. We’re headed back to the studio feeling inspired after three of our projects were recognized in the Community & Culture and Workplace categories:

🏆1st Place - Green County Family YMCA
⭐Honorable Mention - Mission94 Fi****ms Education Center
⭐Honorable Mention - Waushara County Government Center

Design is a team sport, and these awards belong just as much to our incredible clients and partners as they do to our interior design team. It’s all about the collaboration that happens before the doors even open.

Governor Tony Evers and DWD Secretary Amy Pechacek recently visited the Green County Family YMCA to see firsthand the impact of the Wisconsin Workforce Innovation Grant.

This funding helped bring the Green County Family YMCA’s Childcare Center and Youth Development Center to life - creating meaningful opportunities for local families and strengthening the community’s workforce.

An investment in children, families, and long-term community growth.

Spring is here and with it, a renewed focus on the spaces that connect people and nature. 🌱

Our approach to landscape architecture is rooted in sustainability and human experience - thoughtfully blending the built and natural environments to create spaces that feel seamless, purposeful, and lasting.

Here’s to a season of growth - in nature and design.

What does it take to transform a middle school into a thriving K–8 campus?

For Racine Unified Schools, the answer was thoughtful planning, collaboration, and a vision for future-ready learning.

Zimmerman partnered with the district to convert Starbuck Middle School into a modern K–8 educational environment supporting its International Baccalaureate World School curriculum. The project introduced new STEM labs, maker spaces, flexible learning environments, and improved site circulation—all while safely integrating elementary and middle school students on one campus.

The result is a unified learning environment designed to support students, educators, and the community for years to come.

Industrial design that works - today and tomorrow.

Zilber Property Group continued expansion in Caledonia underscores the need for high-performance, adaptable buildings along the I-94 corridor.

We value our long-standing collaboration with Zilber, designing spaces that prioritize performance, flexibility, and long-term functionality.

As Brian Hatzung, Director of our Live-Work-Play Studio, shares:
“The best industrial buildings are the ones that quietly do their job…allowing the business inside to focus on their mission.”

Buzzing with activity and enhanced in natural light, the Green County Family YMCA is a true hub for childcare, recreation, and community connection. 🌞

This project highlights Green County's dedication to supporting healthy living and youth development. The new addition incorporates ample glass, bringing natural light into the facility while showcasing the vibrant activity within. Classrooms and playground areas were strategically located to provide a thoughtful balance of visibility, safety, and privacy.

Puzzle play is the process of arranging spatial elements to explore and optimize design solutions. 🧩

This semester, our interior design studio has the privilege of facilitating a healthcare interiors class for students from the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design and Concordia University Wisconsin.

Last class, our healthcare studio led a hands-on puzzle play activity, giving students the chance to experiment with programmatic elements before finalizing their layouts. The students embraced the challenge, pushing boundaries and uncovering fresh ideas, proving that creativity is a powerful force in solving complex healthcare challenges with human-centered solutions.

Having the opportunity to share our experience and passion for healthcare interior design, and to help equip the next generation of designers with essential planning tools, is truly rewarding.
